This policy explains what personal information Yeshivas Mishkan Shmuel collects through mishkanshmuel.com, why we collect it, who we share it with, and the choices you have.
Who we are
Yeshivas Mishkan Shmuel, Eliezerov Street 8, Jerusalem, Israel. You can reach us at office@mishkanshmuel.com, +1-347-761-3817 or +972-53-712-6278.
What we collect
- Applications and enrolment. Names and contact details for students and parents, date of birth, school history, photos, passport and other identity documents, visa details, health insurance details and travel information.
- Tuition and payments. The billing contact, invoices, payments and account balance. If you pay by card or bank transfer online, the payment is processed by our payment processor. If you ask us to keep a card on file for tuition, we keep the card details you give us so that we can charge it as agreed.
- Donations. Your name, contact details, the amount you give and the campaign you support.
- Your account. If you have a login, your username, email address and password. Passwords are stored in a form we cannot read.
- Messages. Anything you send us through the contact and support forms.
- Technical information. Like most websites, our hosting provider keeps server logs (such as IP address and browser type) for security and troubleshooting.
How we use it
We use this information to review applications, enrol and look after our students, arrange visas and travel, bill tuition and record payments, process and acknowledge donations, answer your messages, and keep the site secure. We do not sell your information, and we do not use it for advertising.
Who we share it with
We share information only as needed to run the yeshiva and this site:
- our website host and the technology company that builds and maintains the site;
- our payment processor, to take card and bank payments;
- our email providers, to send you messages and, if you subscribe, our newsletter;
- government authorities where needed, for example for student visas, or where the law requires it.
Cookies
The site uses only the cookies it needs to work, such as the cookies that keep you logged in and that make our forms function. We do not use advertising cookies or third-party tracking.
Students under 18
Some of our students are under 18. Their information is provided by their parents or guardians, or with their consent, for admission and enrolment.
How long we keep it
We keep student and family records while the student is with us and afterwards for as long as we need them for our financial, legal and administrative records. Donation records are kept for as long as we need them for accounting and receipts.
Security
The site uses encrypted (HTTPS) connections, and staff need a login to see records. No website is completely secure, so please contact us right away if you think something is wrong with your account.
Your choices
You can ask us to show you, correct or delete the information we hold about you by emailing office@mishkanshmuel.com. We may need to keep some records where the law or our financial records require it. You can unsubscribe from our newsletter at any time using the link in any newsletter email.
Changes
If we change this policy, we will update it on this page and change the date at the top.
